Ghana celebrates 67 years since gaining independence from its former colonial rulers, the British, today, March 6, 2024.
After 83 years of British colonial rule, Ghana gained independence, becoming the first sub-Saharan African country to achieve freedom from Britain.
The country’s inaugural President, Dr Kwame Nkrumah, proclaimed Ghana’s liberation from colonial rule as a significant milestone in the nation’s leadership.
Every year on March 6, celebrations take place nationwide and among Ghanaians living abroad, featuring a range of activities that continue throughout the month.
This year’s national anniversary celebration will take place at the Youth Resource Centre in the Eastern Regional capital of Koforidua.
